Gabrielle Union's post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been "on 10" for several months.
The 47-year-old actress has revealed that the coronavirus pandemic and recent unrest in the US have taken their toll on her mental health.
She shared: "The combination of a pandemic and this racial reckoning, alongside being inundated with [images of] the brutalisation of black bodies, has sent my PTSD into overdrive. There's just terror in my body."
Gabrielle has therefore created her own "fix-me toolkit" in order to combat her struggles.
The Hollywood star - who is married to basketball legend Dwyane Wade - told Women's Health magazine: "I break out my emotional fix-me toolkit, and I try to run through all the situations. I call it my 'what's the likelihood of X happening?' method."
